AFTER OUR ENGI EERS RESEARCHEDTHEBESI ~LE PRODUCTS, WE CAN ED THEM. There's a lot more to our motorcycle products than m ts the eye. A lot of research and development. Analyzing and testing. A lot of blood, sweat and tears. And we go through all this trouble for a very simple reason: The Honda name on our products. A name that to millions means dependability and quality Advanced engineering and high technology. A name that's the standard by which other companies measure their progress. On the road-and on the track. A name that means these are the best products for Honda motorcycles, scooters, orATC three-wheelers. Bar none. From fork oil to hypoid oil. From silicone lubricant to brake cleaner. From liquid gaskets to moly grease. And everything in between. Honda oil and chemical products. Custom blended. Priced to sell. The engineers keep coming up with new ones. And we keep canning them. HONDA Eddie Hicks on his way to the race of Champions win.
